We, the undersigned, believe there should be a place for every Brisbane resident child to attend Brisbane Elementary School (BES). We urge the Board of Trustees to support this priority by making space at BES for all of Brisbane's incoming kindergarteners for Fall 2011. We ask the Board to do this out of fairness and equal consideration shown to other student populations--including Panorama students and interdistrict transfers--that the Board has decided should continue to attend their schools of choice, in spite of the budget crisis. Brisbane families who pay property taxes into the district and have roots in the community should be given the same consideration.
I am spending this week drafting formal letters to every member of the Board of Trustees to demand an explanation for these enrollment priorities. Please post the petition link on your Facebook page today and email your local representative to tell them that Brisbane families come first.

Reaching this milestone proves that our community refuses to accept anything less than fairness for our local children. Post this link on your Facebook page today and tag the Board of Trustees to keep the pressure on. Send an email to your representative demanding that they open these seats for Brisbane families.

Ridiculous that we have to fight for this. Our babies need to be at BES with their friends.

We pay plenty in property taxes for this exact reason. Make it work for the locals.

My oldest went there and now my youngest cant get in? This is ridiculous. Neighborhood kids belong in their neighborhood school.

It is absolutely heartbreaking that our kids might have to commute just because the board cant manage space correctly. Put Brisbane kids first finally.
